Stefan Mccluskey any good? See he was with you guys last season.

Hearing that we are in talks with Stefan Mccluskey. Played for Dumbarton last season. Don’t know much about him to be honest although he has been around a few clubs in his time.

Kelty money shaggers!
-
Just popped up here to see what was being said so here’s my take. Whilst I agree with my fellow monument shaggers in the 3 14s being the best restructuring proposal, I can admit it is probably is from a selfish point of view from league 2 teams including ourselves. We have clearly chosen this to keep both Kelty and Brora down and help preserve the status of the teams at the bottom of our league. Also teams will be happy not to have these 2 teams promoted as they will no doubt challenge for title next season which would limit our and others chances of promotion. The 14 team league also gives the opportunity to teams like stirlinh to have one very good/lucky season and we would be playing some big teams and making some good cash. Compared to 14 10 10 10 where we would need 2 promotions to be playing against the ‘bigger boys’ of the lower leagues. Cove could no doubt see it this way as well as by winning a league of 14 where they only have to compete with the same teams from this year - which they have done easily, plus the bottom 4 of the league above to get big games the following season, which would be much easier than them playing in a league of 10 against other current league 1 clubs and fight it out for promotion with the likes or airdrie Falkirk east fife etc. Do I dare feel sorry for the 4 teams in league 1 who would basically be relegated due to this proposal? Probably yes. They will now receive less income from travelling supports and probably see home supports drop too by playing against lesser opposition, leading to staff/ player cuts and Ofcourse big budget cuts too. And 3 of those 4 have not finished bottom so it’s harsh punishing them 3 instead of punishing 2 teams- hearts and thistle who actually are bottom in their league. Where’s the sense in that I ask? But purely out of self interest though it’s a good decision for Stirling!

Hearing that Stirling and Clyde both interest in a kit Cummins from Glenafton. Anyone know much about him? Heard he’s a big lad and a good footballer. Cheers!

I’m hearing we are looking at a player called Kit Cummins, was with Glenafton this season. Big 6ft 5, strong in the air and quick feet. Anyone else heard this too? Clyde also in for him as well apparently I’m told. cheers
